Im going for that Race car look, aside from the wing and carbon air duct, its staying stock body, its going to be tuned for the track. I drive the gold one in the backroand everyday the Z is for autocross and Track days

the full kit doesnt make me faster, i will lower it alot in the front and 1/2 inch in the rear. I want to set it up for performance not looks. Im running in semi pro series autocross. I acualy get pirrelli tires for free now. As a sponsorship. I was thinking about the lip...But the 06 lip looks like **** the fitment is terrible. If the lip fit, it would be great.

They do not clunk, They are amazing, i dont even have it alligned and on my stock wheels with warn tires in the middle of winter on a cold road, my cornering ability is that of summer time, on fresh tires.

AKA Time to spend some money, they are silent. the ride is fantastic, no roll, even cornering at 100+ the roll is not there.
